These are all valid questions. many prospective fraternity members don't realize, and are not informed of what the pledging process and hazing will entail, because this information is hidden in secrecy by the brotherhood of the fraternity. Many hazing traditions involve alcohol. Alcohol is a common element in hazing. Drinking games can lead quickly to alcohol poisoning — especially when inexperienced, underage drinkers are served hard liquor (a few vodka bottles are easier to hide than a keg)…

However, one way that Alpha Gamma Delta sets themselves apart from the other sororities is the way that they handle recruitment. According to Rachel, "Most of the sororities are materialistic. They judge and recruit girls based on their looks and their wealth" (Fulton). The sororities…

life and others may not. Giving a brief over view will give insight to this paper. Secret societies have long been a part of the cultural makeup of the United States. Students at the College of William & Mary in 1776 formed a secret society called Phi Beta Kappa.

The larger minority group of students was Asian American or students of Middle Eastern descent. Growing up, I often…

journey and reflect upon my time at GTCC, the most significant endeavor thus far, without a doubt has been becoming a member of Phi Theta Kappa (PTK) Honor Society. Meeting the requirements academically to be invited into PTK, created such an intense sense of pride. Not only am I a member of PTK, I was chosen to serve as Vice President of Scholarships for our chapter Alpha Pi Alpha at GTCC. Serving with PTK, has allowed me to be part of an amazing fellowship with my other officers and members,…

1. I don’t mind doing homework like this, but I enjoy discussion boards more. 2. I’m excited about going to the Alpha Chi and Alpha Phi Sigma induction ceremonies, but worry about the travel costs involved. 3. Even though I’m a strictly distance education student, athletes get higher registration priority for classes. 4. Professor McQueen, would you mind writing a reference for me for graduate school when I apply? 5. Some people appreciate sarcastic humor, yet I’ve found that it makes some…

of here at Alabama. The maximum amount that women pay to belong to a sorority at University of Alabama is $7,100 a semester according to the National Panhellenic Association. Membership dues are only a fraction of the income. The Phi Kappa Psi Fraternity Alabama Alpha chapter just built a mansion this year on “new row” that cost 7.2…
